The billionaire’s real target may have been the man he, in his increasingly conspiratorial worldview, has compared to the supervillain Magneto: George Soros.
CEO was the chief financier of Saving Austin, a group that distributed incendiary material attacking District Attorney José Garza during the Democratic primary, including fliers that baselessly accused him of “filling Austin’s streets with pedophiles & killers,” thereports. Alongside that tagline, the fliers contained an image of the Travis County DA next to a bloody teddy bear and the warning, “The next victim could be your loved one.
The progressive Soros, 94, has donated millions to political action committees in support of district attorney candidates who advocated for reforms to the justice system and greater accountability for law enforcement. That includes Garza’s 2020 campaign, when the Soros-backed Texas Justice and Public Safety PAC spent $450,000. Soros did not contribute to this year’s race.they didn’t know about Musk’s involvement, and both previously condemned the Saving Austin flier.
“In my opinion, he fundamentally hates humanity,” Musk said of Soros last year, on Joe Rogan’s podcast. “He’s doing things that erode the fabric of civilization—getting DAs elected that refuse to prosecute crime.
Unlike Musk’s Trump-supporting America PAC—which had to register with the Federal Election Commission and publish its donors—the Texas campaign was mounted by using a tax-exempt organization type that can keep donor names secret.
